there's basically 2 styles of ballasts used on the E60. bmw changed the ballast style in 2005 i believe.
older style.

looks like you need the newer style.
Awesome Bro! Now I just have to find out the part number for the ballasts and the AHL modules. Thanks a lot for your efforts, Brad

I don't think that link will help you, those are D2S Ballast. From the headlights it looks like you need D1S ballast and Stepper motor controller (63127189312). I recently bought both pairs off ebay. I got one of each brand new for about $40 a piece. Search ebay and be patient if you want a good deal.

I already mentioned to you what you need. There is no part number listed on the ballast you have to search for D1S ballast, just search for BMW ballast now you know what it looks like, or you could just call your local dealer and ask for the part numbers. The part number I previously gave you (63127189312)is the lastest adaptive headlights control module.
^^^^^ Got it! Thanks to all who helped! ^^^^^
